| Citation | GG(J.775.048 6 Dec 1775:41 (635) I've too much grace to play the knave, And too much pride to turn a slave; I love my country from my soul, And grieve when knaves or fools controul. . . . [a long essay on present troubles follows.] Remember, O my friends, the laws, the rights, The gen'rous plan of power deliver'd down, From age to age, by your renowned forefathers, (So dearly bought, the price of so much blood.) . . . [5 more lines, signed] An American |
